Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of future occupiers, having particular regard to floor space and external amenity space
- Whether or not satisfactory arrangements for the storage and collection of waste have been demonstrated
What decided it
The maisonettes would not provide satisfactory living conditions due to insufficient internal floor space and lack of private external amenity space when functioning as 2-bedroom family dwellings, contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan and Croydon Local Plan policies.
Plan policies cited: Policy SP2.8 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018), Policy DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018), Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policy DM13 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018)
